I was listening to the radio about how Pope John Paul II is close to death.
It will be good to celebrate this man's life....a spiritual leader and a man of peace.
In large part due to his efforts and influence, the Catholic church has greatly grown in Africa, Asia and Latin America. A large portion of the college of cardinals who will meet to select a new pope are non-white, non-European.
He has always been a man of compassion, reconciliation and justice. We should pray that the people of God continue to be blessed with humble and wise leaders.
